i currently have the incubator with small plastic tubs inside with the lids on. Humidity is around 98%.

The thing is im getting condensation on the underside of the lids on the tubs and the occasional drip is occuring. ive noticed two spots that have appeared where i think a drip of water has landed on the egg.

any tips for avoiding this? dry paper towel over the top of them or will this steal their moisture?

open the corner of the lids for a bit of ventilation. They should still hold enough humidity but not too much that drips form.

A layer of damp sphagnum moss over the top will catch any drops, and help keep the upper half of the eggs moist.

i cant imagine it will do too much damage as its wet in there anyways. i have looked through a lot of pics and alot of them seem to have marks on them, slightly a different colour to the rest of the egg. some one with the knowledge will be along shortly im sure x

humidity sky rockets with damp towels
lids need to be kept on for air humidity
had another look, not sure if it is what i think it is
missus says could be where embryo is attached?

maybe damp kitchen roll no lids?
